I had to tell you what an amazing story this is. I don't remember how I came across it, but I'm very happy I gave it a chance. The characters were spot on, and the world you created was dreadful and amazing. I had a suspicion about Sumiko; was very happy as to how she was wrapped up. I was positive Willow was going to come back in some way - as a super-witch hidden away for many years, or SOMETHING, but I was way off. I'm glad the story turned out the way it did. I see you haven't posted anything on in many years - I hope you're still writing.

Fantasic! Go Sumiko! Whoo! She is made of awesome.

You're great storyteller and you're responsible for me oversleeping when going to sleep. I couldn't put it aside until I finished it.

I love the way you pictures us your world and the characters. One has to love Sumiko :D

Thank you very much

A wonderful story to read! I cried, I cheered (well, I cheered internally--reading at work and all), and I ranted at the bad guys.

I was initially suspicious of the idea of Buffy being yanked a few centuries into the future, but you proved my suspicions wrong and the tale lived up to its potential for excellent entertainment.

And yey! Happy ending. I'm such a sucker for it.

I want to have your babies. Seriously, this was amazing. Best fanfic I've ever read, which is saying a lot. I hope you've ended up writing professionally, cause you kick ** at it.

I usually have a lot more to say in these things.
Basically, I am pretty sure this is the best Buffyfic I've ever read. EVER. And I've read a lot of them. Complex plot, great foreshadowing, wonderful metaphors and symbols, painful memories, poignant emotions, clever characters (obviously, I adore Sumiko), elegant prose, and you've nailed both Buffy's dialogue and the crazy dream-sequences in true Whedonesque fashion, which I think is difficult and rare.

Masterful storytelling. Brava.

that story was awesome!

Oh, just read this all in one go. Wow, it's like 4:30am where I am (London! Hee, reading about a post apocalyptic version of my home was weird.)
I absolutely adored this story, it was brilliant! There is so much I want to say but mostly I loved all the characters especially Sumiko, and also you really kept me guessing and thinking throught each chapter.
This story is definitely going onto my favourites list.

I've been randomly surfing for stories all day... and... my goddess. I am so in love with this story. It was so amazing. I can't really put it into words. I'm going to read this again...and again...and again, because it is just utterly classic. I really, really never comment fanfiction like that.

Sumiko's turning point was an incredible twist, and the point that made me think that this story would make an incredible movie. Very well done! Thank you. :)

This is the only fanfic that has ever made me cry. Awesome.

wow. you're amazing. I'm embarrassed to review this story because of the stories on my page, that's how good you are.
haha I don't even know what to say! this story just blew my mind.

This was pretty good. At first I was reminded of another story that I really like, Seras 2066 by greenonion, since that also takes place in a war-torn future of the series (and it's a really good story, you should give it a read). But this has tuned out to be far more about the council and while this was pretty good, I didn't care quite as much for it since I was looking forward to big battles against the demons and whatnot.

While seeing how this has turned out, it makes quite a bit more sense, at first I was really disappointed in how they were going about the fighting. Considering my first reaction to having to fight a war against demons would be to upgrade my gear so that it worked, and that Riley's team of army guys were doing okay some 350 years before and that the mass death of humanity didn't happen for at least another 150 years since then, I'm sure there would have been plenty of weapons and tech-know-how to build some impressive anti-demon weaponry... Oh well.

Still, this has been an enjoyable read. Good job.

that was awesome! i read nonstop until i finally got to the end coz it was a great story.

keep writing, keep inspired. ;)

loved this story!
